The River
Buchbeschreibung
A bewitching play by Jez Butterworth, author of the global smash-hit
Jerusalem. Premiered at the Royal Court Theatre in 2012.
On a moonless night in August when the sea trout are ready to run, a man brings his new girlfriend to the remote family cabin where he has come for the fly-fishing since he was a boy. But she's not the only woman he has brought here – or indeed the last...
'A delicately unfolding puzzle... all of it is wrapped in marvelous language... extraordinary.'
The Times
'One of the best productions of the year... a magnetically eerie, luminously beautiful psychodrama.'
Time Out
'Strange, eerie, tense... Butterworth possesses a singular talent.'
